Pulling the trigger on MSI HD 7950 Twin Frozr III

Very nice card and decent game bundle with it too :).

Good time to buy with the new drivers also can't grumble at that price specially for that model and brand.
 
I think you'd see a great improvement:) almost doubled all specs:)

Welcome to the dark side ;)

Prozel surely they could? Obviously be a premium:(

If you know anyone in the areas they deliver you could have it shipped to them and then sent to you. Depends if it still works out cheaper for you
 
The card cost the same in Denmark, however, none of them include the new bundle.

I've heard Overclockers have sold to Denmark before, but when I try I dont get any delivery options. Really sucks.
 
I upgraded to the MSI 7950 TFIII from a 5850, which is similar performance to a 460.

It runs cool and quiet, overclocked to 1000mhz easily with no increase in temps. It runs at 59c - 60c max load. You will see great gains mate, I was blown away by the performance when I installed the card :)
 
ive got a 5850 and was looking at the 7950 . is the difference night and day or less because i have my card running @1000/1200 for gaming if i need the extra power .

cheers
 
Muppet I'd imagine you'd see a bit of improvement not as much as op though.

Theoretical comparison

Edit

If it were me I'd do it would probally be the same power as your oc 5850 with ease if you oc the 7950 you'd be laughing:)

Careful linking them stats, it has adverts in them, i got banned from posting for doing that last time lol, only for an hour but its against the rules of OCUK to link other sellers.

460 Is a bad card imo 7950 is massive over this you will surely see a difference.

460 still copes really well, just getting a bit long in the tooth really. I'd quite happily roll it for a bit longer if I had to:)

I used a GTX460 for a short time while waiting for my replacement 7950 and it got me by, but you will love the performance increase when you get the TF3.
Pretty much night and day.
